A Winnipeg man is facing charges after police say he performed an indecent act on a city bus and sexually assaulted two women at a local mall.
Detectives from the sex crimes unit began investing separate reports of sexual assault and indecent acts in April.
They say a man committed an indecent act in front of a woman — and within eyesight of several other passengers — while travelling on a transit bus on April 4.
